Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.
Florence Welch
Image
I'm completely in love with the world but also terrified of it. It creates some overwhelming feelings. Wanting to battle out that joy and fear is part of my music.
Florence Welch
Image
Music to me is so internal. It's physical and it's emotional. Whereas fashion is so much about the external that it's almost like a break. It's not inner turmoil. It's total escapism.
Florence Welch
Image
I’m attracted to the idea of drowning. Or rather the idea of jumping off and being enveloped by something, not bad or good, just enveloping. When I was a kid, I had a moment when I got under the water, lying on the pool floor, and felt I could breathe. I’ve been trying to recreate that feeling ever since.

On stage, you can use your emotions. It's the place where you can channel them. They have a purpose.

Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.

It was a complete dream to work with David LaChapelle. I collected his books as a teenager, and I fantasised that he would direct the video for 'Spectrum' from the moment the song was written. I still can't believe it actually happened, and I'm completely overjoyed that he felt such a connection with the song.

It’s good to be vulnerable in amongst the grandeur you shouldn’t lose that sense of intimacy and vulnerability with people.

Image
I think I've always looked older than I am. I hope that's going to work in my favor when I get older.
Florence Welch
Image
I've learned not to hide behind a veil of irony - to talk about my work in a more honest way.
Florence Welch
Image
What I really like seeing from the stage is people having their own moments, when people are doing some performance of their own.
Florence Welch
Image
I love performing outside because it's as if the heavens are open and the elements become part of the stage show as well - you know, the wind and the rain and the thunder. It's almost as if there's a sense of invocation in performance.
Florence Welch
Image
I used to dress like an eight-year-old boy. Traveling has inspired me to be more experimental.
Florence Welch
Image
I'd gone from being this art student messing about with music to this girl with a record deal, magazine front covers and all this hype. In many ways, it was everything I ever wanted, but when it happened all I felt was total, paralysing fear.
Florence Welch
Image
You can forget anything, and actually being a part of a crowd, of a group, can itself be freeing.
Florence Welch
Image
I was always that girl growing up who you could find dancing down supermarket aisles. It's that sense of not feeling inhibited. Dancing in supermarkets is my favorite thing.

Image
Love is horrible. I mean, when you're in love, it's like a sickness. Such madness.
Florence Welch
Image
I'm quite glad I never learned to play the guitar, because I think I'd write songs that were more classically structured. As it is, I've had to create my own way of writing, which isn't typical. Everything's a big crescendo.

I can't just have one painting - I need to cover the wall in paintings. It's the same with my music. I want to mix everything together to create more.
